about

I wrote this song at the end of summer. I told my Bride it was her Valentine song, but she said I was too early (pre-mature publication?), so I had to write another. Nonetheless, it is indeed a Valentine. The YouTube video has wonderful photos by my photographer friend Scrolling Stone.

lyrics

Arizona Moon - copyright 2015 Darrell Elmer Rodgers

The desert sun is almost gone
in a turqouise amber glow
The desert moon is rising
like it's time to start the show

We'll take a stroll down the desert trail
to our favorite rendevous
And hear mother nature's music play
as only lovers do

The crickets chirp the rythym
a tiny Rock Wren sings the tune
And I hold you tight as we dance tonight
'neath the Arizona Moon

[Whistling or other instrumental]

In our bliss, we'll steal a kiss
making ol' coyote swoon
As I hold you tight and we dance tonight
'neath the Arizona Moon

Twinkling stars dance with us
in the glow of our desert moon
Mesquite and Palo Verde swinging
genltly to the tune

We don't have a dance floor
but the desert fills the part
and who needs a band to play
when the song is in your heart?

The crickets cjirp the rythym
a tiny Rock Wren sings the tune
And I hold you tight as we dance tonight
'neath the Arizona Moon

we've only got the evening
and morning comes too soon
So hold me tight and we'll dance tonight
'neath the Arizona Moon
Yes hold me tight and we'll dance tonight
'neath the Arizona Moon
